Lamentations 2
1 How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, [and] cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!
Hedèy te nakopo’ i Talè an-drahoñe ao t’i Tsione amy haviñera’ey! Naretsa’e boak’ an-dikerañey pak’ an-tane eo ty hatsomerentsere’ Israele, vaho nandikofa’e ty fatimpaha’e amy androm-pifomboa’ey.
2 The Lord hath swallowed up all the habitations of Jacob, and hath not pitied: he hath thrown down in his wrath the strong holds of the daughter of Judah; he hath brought [them] down to the ground: he hath polluted the kingdom and the princes thereof.
Fa nagedra’ i Talè tsy aman-tsehanga’e o kiboho’ Iakobeo, vaho tsy niferenaiña’e; fa nafetsa’e ambane eo o kijoly fatrats’ i anak’ ampela’ Iehodàio; ie nafotsa’e an-tane; tiniva’e i fifeheañey naho o roandria’eo.
3 He hath cut off in [his] fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath drawn back his right hand from before the enemy, and he burned against Jacob like a flaming fire, [which] devoureth round about.
Fa naitoa’e an-kaviñerañe mena ty tsifa’ Israele; nasita’e aolo’ i rafelahiy ty fità’e havana; vaho finorototo’e hoe afo misolebatse t’Iakobe, afo mangotomomoke mb’eo mb’eo.
4 He hath bent his bow like an enemy: he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and slew all [that were] pleasant to the eye in the tabernacle of the daughter of Zion: he poured out his fury like fire.
Nabitso’e hoe rafelahy ty fale’e, najado’e hoe ravetro ty fità’e, vaho zinama’e iaby ze nisoa am-pihaino; an-kivoho’ i anak’ampela’ i Tsioney ty nampidoandoaña’e ty haviñera’e hoe afo.
5 The Lord was as an enemy: he hath swallowed up Israel, he hath swallowed up all her palaces: he hath destroyed his strong holds, and hath increased in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
Fa ninjare rafelahy t’i Talè henanekeo, fa nigenohe’e t’Israele; hene nabea’e o sokemitraha’eo, rinotsa’e o fipalirañe fatratseo; vaho nampitomboe’e amy anak’ampela’ Iehodày ty fangololoihañe naho fandalàñe.
6 And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as [if it were of] a garden: he hath destroyed his places of the assembly: the LORD hath caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.
Hinatsakatsa’e i kivoho’ey hoe t’ie nigoloboñe; nampiantoe’e i toem-pivori’e namotoañañey; nampahaliñoe’ Iehovà e Tsione ao o Famantañañeo naho o Sabatao, vaho ninjè’e ami’ty fitorifiha’ i fifomboa’ey i mpanjakay naho o mpisoroñeo.
7 The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath abhorred his sanctuary, he hath given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces; they have made a noise in the house of the LORD, as in the day of a solemn feast.
Navokovoko’ i Talè i kitreli’ey, nampangorìñe Aze i toe’e niavakey; napo’e am-pitan-drafelahy o rindrin’ anjombao: ie nikorake añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao, manahake te añ’androm-pivory miavake.
8 The LORD hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: he hath stretched out a line, he hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying: therefore he made the rampart and the wall to lament; they languished together.
Sinafiri’ Iehovà ty handrotsake ty kijoli’ i anak’ ampela’ i Tsioney; fa kinazazà’e ty taly, tsy nampoli’e ty fità’e tsy handrotsake; nampirovete’e iaby ty fahañe naho ty rindriñe; mitrao-pinìke iereo.
9 Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes [are] among the Gentiles: the law [is] no [more; ] her prophets also find no vision from the LORD.
Nalentek’ an-tane ao o lalam-bei’eo; fa rinotsa’e vaho pinoza’e o sikada’eo; songa an-tane tsy mitan-Kàke i mpanjaka’ey naho o roandria’eo; eka tsy manjo aroñaroñe boak’ am’ Iehovà o mpitoki’eo.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, [and] keep silence: they have cast up dust upon their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
Mitozòke an-tane eo ty androanavi’ i Tsione, mijomohoñe, nampibobò deboke añ’ambone’eo; midian-gony am-baniañe; miondre-doha’ mb’an-tane o somondrara mieha’ i Tsioneo.
11 Mine eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.
Milesa o masokoo ty amo ranomasoo, mioremeñe ty troko; fa nadoañe an-tane ty ateko, ty amy fandrotsahañe i anak’ampela’ ondatikoy, ty amo anak’ajajao naho o mpinono mitoirañe an-dalan-drovao;
12 They say to their mothers, Where [is] corn and wine? when they swooned as the wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul was poured out into their mothers’ bosom.
Hoe iereo aman-drene, aia ty tsako naho ty divay? ie tsipike hoe mate an-dala’ i rovay ey ie midoañe añ’arañan-drene’e ao ty fiai’ iareo.
13 What thing shall I take to witness for thee? what thing shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach [is] great like the sea: who can heal thee?
Akore ty havereko azo? Añoharako ami’ty inon-drehe ry anak’ ampela’ Ierosalaime? Ino ty hañirinkiriñako ama’o hañohòako azo, ry anak’ampela’ i Tsione? Fa mienene manahake i riakey ty fere’o, ia ty hahamelañe azo?
14 Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.
Nahaisak’ aroñarom-bande naho hagegeañe ho azo o mpitoki’oo; vaho tsy nabora’ iareo o tahi’oo, hampipoliañe azo boak’an-drohy ao, fa fetsen-dremborake ty niisa’ iareo, toe talim-pandroahañe.
15 All that pass by clap [their] hands at thee; they hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, [saying, Is] this the city that [men] call The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
Songa miteha-pitañe ama’o ze miary eo; sindre mikosake naho mikofikofi-doha amy anak’ampela’ Ierosalaimey manao ty hoe: Itoy hao i rova nitokaveñe ty hoe: Fahafoniran-Kasoa Vintañe, ty firebeha’ ty tane-bey toiy?
16 All thine enemies have opened their mouth against thee: they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed [her] up: certainly this [is] the day that we looked for; we have found, we have seen [it].
Nampidañadaña falie ama’o o fonga malaiñe azoo; mikosasàke naho mikodrìtse nife manao ty hoe: Fa nabean-tika; itoy ‘nio i andro nitaman-tikañey, fa tendreke, le isake.
17 The LORD hath done [that] which he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word that he had commanded in the days of old: he hath thrown down, and hath not pitied: and he hath caused [thine] enemy to rejoice over thee, he hath set up the horn of thine adversaries.
Fa nanoe’ Iehovà i naereñere’ey; fa nihenefa’e i fetse najado’e añ’andro taoloy; fa naretsa’e ambane eo le tsy niferenaiña’e; vaho nampirebehe’e ama’o o rafelahi’oo; naonjo’e ty tsifa’ o malaiñ’azoo.
18 Their heart cried unto the Lord, O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night: give thyself no rest; let not the apple of thine eye cease.
Mitoreo añ’arofo amy Talè iereo: O ry kijoli’ i anak’ampela’ i Tsioney, ampikararaho ranomaso hoe sorotombake handro an-kaleñe; ko ampahazoe’o fiaiñe ty fañova’o; ko ampitofa’o o fihaino’oo.
19 Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street.
Miongaha, mikoeaha te haleñe, ami’ty fiorota’ o fijilovañeo; adoaño ty arofo’o hoe rano añatrefan-dahara’ i Talè; añonjono fitañe ama’e ho ami’ty fiai’ o keleia’o mitoirañe ami’ty kerè an-doha o lalañeo iabio.
20 Behold, O LORD, and consider to whom thou hast done this. Shall the women eat their fruit, [and] children of a span long? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
Hehe ry Iehovà biribirio: ia o nanoa’o o raha zaoo? Habotse’ o rakembao hao o tolin-tsabo’eo? o ajaja otroñe’e am-pitàñeo? Ho zamaneñe an-toe’ i Talè miavak’ ao hao ty mpisoroñe naho ty mpitoky?
21 The young and the old lie on the ground in the streets: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword; thou hast slain [them] in the day of thine anger; thou hast killed, [and] not pitied.
Ty tora’e naho ty androanavi-bey, songa màndre an-tane an-dalañe eo; o somondrarakoo naho o ajalahikoo, fonga zinevo’ i fibaray; binaibai’o amy andron-kaviñera’oy zinama’o fa tsy niferenaiña’o.
22 Thou hast called as in a solemn day my terrors round about, so that in the day of the LORD’s anger none escaped nor remained: those that I have swaddled and brought up hath mine enemy consumed.
Kinoi’o hoe añ’androm- pivory miavake, o hekoheko miariseho ahikoo; vaho leo raike tsy nahabotatsake, tsy nanisañe amy andron-kaviñera’ Iehovày; o notroñekoo naho nibeizekoo ro fonga nabea’ i rafelahiy.
